    Coil charging clip

    I really like the bevel idea. It took me awhile to realize there is only one way it fits the coil. I tried jamming the clip the first time. I learn fast------well, once in a while. I bought the "other" clip a a backup. Rarely use it though.

    Another one for the showcase

    Great find! I've found the firing system in various pieces but never like yours.

    Finally the first hunt of the yr... after 25+yrs of doing this, I commit the biggest rookie mistake...

    Mark, I'm still making dumb mistakes after 49 years of hunting. Yesterday I drove my pickup to a field, got out and stepped right on top of a BIG fire ant mound. At that moment I think I just invented about 3 or 4 new dances. I"ve done this a few times after hitting a target and never look...

    How many remember the very first detector you started the hobby with and how long ago ??

    Mine was a White's bought in June 1974 at Cook's Appliance Repair in Albany, Georgia. Can't remember the model number. I think most towns in America had a White's dealer back then. They were a great company to do business with. Ron, that's a funny story about the Jetco coils. Oh yes, I just...

    Getting ready to move to Seviervelle TNN in June-July

    Sure wish I could help but can't. I was there last summer and have never seen so many cars and people for one area. I was going to the museum but could not pull over. I definitely was in the wrong lane. I felt like I was in a NASCAR race. I truly hope you have a great time there esp. after...

    4 hours in the field for this??

    I've found a few seated dimes on the farm here. What's strange is they all look like they were dropped a few days after being minted. These fields have been planted every year, I think, since before "The War Between the States". You would think fertilizer, etc. would have done a job on them but...

    Picked up 1000 wheaties in a bank sack, talk to the old timers at the coffee shop

    Arkansas, I know how you feel about your dad. I lost mine when he was 54 yrs. old. Industrial accident in Brunswick, Ga. and I was 30. It's been 56 years years now. I still miss him so much. He was one of "The Greatest Generation". WW2 veteran.

    ID numbers read 30 points higher on my XP than my mxt????

    Tony, you are right. Different company, different engineers, different country, different age. Kind of like comparing my old '50 Ford to my '66 GTO.

    F/S New Minelab EQX06 coil

    Don, I made a deal so I'll abide by it but why do you have to get the MO before I get the coil? Is that more important than me receiving the product? Mutual trust abides in any transaction unless one party has doubts about the other party's ability to fulfill his obligation. Your M.O will...

    What is EQ800 Worth?

    Guys, I need a 6" coil for my Equinox. Called one dealer and he wanted $169.00. Seems a little high but maybe that is the "range". I would take a used coil, in good shape naturally, but I can't find one. Any recommendations? Off brands, etc?

    Can someone pass along some good settings they recommend for coin hunting (old silver and large coppers).

    MikeO weight and balance is a huge part of any detector I now buy. I hate to admit it but it is even more important than depth. I'm 86 and it means 30 min. of detecting vs. 3 hours.

    Walking Liberty from the beach

    Zac, great finds. Do you simply mix the soda and water and lay it in the foil?

    Wsa11 fix , if you don’t like backphones

    Tony, looks like a great idea. I hate to appear stupid but what is an ox cord? At my age I need all the help I can get.
